This cover consists of an inner section 16pivoted through the instrumentality of hinges. 17'tothe upper edge ofthe extension 6 on the rear wall, the outer edge thereof being designedto terminate short of the front Wall for a purpose that will V i 1100the cover has one surface adjacent one end ,7 j

become apparent. The outer section 18 of reduced forming a transverseshoulder 19 at which point it is pivoted to the outer end of the othersection through the instrumentality of hinges while the opposite surfaceis designed to support a mirror 21. By this arrangement it will beapreciated that the sections16 and 18 when olded in superposed relationwith each other as indicated in Fig. 3 and when restingon the upperedges of the side walls and the front Wall form a complete closure forthe receptacle 1 whereas on the other hand when the section" 16 is swungupwardly and the section 18 swung outwardly so that the inner edgeengages the upper edges of the side wall, the mirror 21 carried by theinner face of this section is capable of being supported in variouspositions of adjustment for the convenience of the owner.

In actual practice the receptacle'and cover may be plush covered andlined while suitable catch .means such as indicated by the numeral 22may be mounted on the outer "end of the section 18 in the adjacent frontwall for removably holding the sectional cover in a folded position soas toentirely close the receptacle and prevent accidental displacementof the contents.

In View of the foregoing description it is thought that a further detaildescription of the operation of the invention is entirely unnecessary.Likewise it is believed that the advantages of the invention will bereadily apparent.

As many changes could be made in the above construction and manyapparently widely different embodiments of this invention could be madewithout departing from the scope thereof, and it is'intendcd that allmatter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanyingdrawingsshall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limited sense.It is also to be under,-

stood that the language used in the following claims is intended tocover all the generic and specific features of the invention hereindescribed and all statements of the scope of the invention which, as amatter of "language might be said to fall therebetween. Having thusdescribed this invention,

cover embodying two, sections one of which is pivoted to the inner endof the receptacle and terminates short of the other end, while the othersection is pivoted at a point adjacentits outer end to the outer end ofthe first section and is foldable to intimately contact with the innerface of the first section to cooperate with the first section incompletely closing the receptacle and upon the raising of the firstsection is swingable outwardly so as to be supported in variouspositions of adjustment upon the upper edges of the receptacle and bebraced by the first seotion,'and a mirror carried'by the last section. vv 2. A deviceof the character described including a receptacle providedwith a plurality of compartments adapted to receive articles, anextension formed on the rear wall of the receptacle, a foldablesectional cover composed of two sections one of the I sections beingpivotally connected to the extension and terminating short of the frontwall of the receptacle, the other section being reduced on one surfaceadjacent one end to provide a transverse shoulder, means for pivotally'connecting the second section at a point adjacent theshoulder to theouter end of the first section to permit of the arrangement of thesections in superposed relation on the upper edge of the receptacle tocompletely close the receptacle and to per mit of the swinging of thesecond section outwardly so as to be supported at various inclinationson the upper edge of the, receptacle by the first section, and a mirrorcarried by the opposite face of the second section.
